I need help interpreting these statements: “Wag ka na magkuya. Si, LJ nga di ako kinikuya”.
I lm pretty sure “Wag ka na” is “stop it”, and that kuya means older brother/cousin/man. Mag is a before tense. So, “stop calling me old man/brother/cousin”?
I’m very lost with “kinikuya”. Please help.

You are correct “wag na” translates to “dont or stop”
That sentence means : dont bother calling me “kuya=old brother” cause even LJ doesnt call me that.
I am Filipina and if you’d want to learn basics Filipino and conversational Filipino you can check out my profile, I will help you by speaking English.

It just means that "You don't need to call him "Kuya" because even LJ does not call him kuya as well".
